b. Check the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.
Turn the synchronizer ring in one direction while pushing it to the gear cone. Check that the ring
locks.
If the braking effect is insufficient, apply a small amount of the fine lapping compound between the
synchronizer ring and gear cone. Lightly rub the synchronizer ring and gear cone together.
NOTE: Ensure the fine lapping compound is completely washed off after
rubbing.
